- Title
Omnipotence and The Fragility of Things:.
- Authors
Keller, Catherine
- Abstract
Connolly's engagement of pluralist theologies and appropriation of the process cosmology of Whitehead permits this paper to connect process theology and the metaphor of theodicy that frames The Fragility of Things. Pursuing Connolly's observation that market outcomes are neoliberalism's 'best of all possible worlds,' this paper outlines the ways in which the process alternative to the economy of omnipotence resonates with Connolly's attention to the (God-free) "world of temporal forcefields" as a response to contemporary crises. Staging a meeting of Connolly's teleodynamic assemblage with the process "democracy of all creatures," this paper proposes a symbiogenetic solidarity along five transdisciplinary 'folds.'
